"Fort Granstone, it's not very far from our Pelican Town, but it's not very close."

Arrow weighed the gold coin in his hand and continued—

"From the south of Pelican Town, you can see from afar, a castle standing in the middle of the great plain. Distance...... It's about a two- or three-hour walk from the town. ”

The Sword Warrior took notes very carefully, while the Spear Warrior looked indifferent, holding the healing aerosol and examining it repeatedly, as if he was very interested in the gas inside.

"The name of this ancient castle is Gangshi Fort, and as far as I know, it was at least five or six hundred years old, right? That's about it, and all in all, it's very old. ”

"A long time ago, rich iron ore was found in the Changmian Mountains in the north of our Pelican Town, and with the development of these iron ores, Pelican Town and the adjacent Honglu Town and Kingfisher Town three towns developed one after another, and they were prosperous for a while."

"In order to better manage these three towns and better supervise the excavation of iron ore on the Changmian Mountains, the administrators at that time set up a lookout on a gentle hillside on a higher ground south of Pelican Town and set up a camp for overall management."

"Over time, successive generations of overseers have served here, and as generations have been built, what was once just a lookout has been shaped into a small castle. Then I don't know when it began, the castle was called the Granite Fort. I guess the name is taken from the meaning of 'sentry' and 'mine'. ”

"Gangstone Fort as a whole is not particularly tall, after all, it is only a place where the Overseer Governor stays. But even so, it is about forty or fifty meters high, and I heard that there are as many as twenty or thirty rooms inside, although it is not as good as the imperial city of our Blue Bay Empire, but it is also a very magnificent building in this kind of small border place. ”

Then, with the gradual change of the times, the iron ore in the Changmian Mountains was collected, and the three towns, including Pelican Town, gradually stripped of their prosperity and weakened. Because there is no point in continuing to supervise, this granite fort does not know when people will start to empty the building, and silently endure the erosion of time in the long years. It's desolate now, and if it's not used as a hiding place for thieves, it's likely to become a gathering place for wild beasts. ”

The sword warrior recorded it in his notebook seriously, and after waiting for a while, he saw that Arrow did not continue, and immediately raised his head and asked, "Is there anything else?" What are the possible dangers in this ancient castle? Are there robbers around your town? ”

Arrow glanced at his lips, "I've never heard of vicious robberies and thefts in our town. However, there may be bandits who stick to the principle that rabbits do not eat the grass next to the nest, and do not attack our small towns that are close at hand. ”

Of course, Coco can't be a theft at all, right?

After recording this, the sword warrior nodded again and again and put away the notebook. The spear warrior over there saw that the sword warrior had finished recording, and immediately reached out and pulled him.

The two men left the counter and walked to the corner, and the spear warrior looked a little impatient and said, "Why are you always so inked?" Got it now? ”

The sword warrior looked through his notes, nodded slightly, and said, "With a general understanding of the situation, now we can confirm that the Gangshi Fort has been abandoned for a long time, and the building structure inside may be a little unstable, so we should be careful when we act." ”

Spear Warrior: "Okay, okay, do you still need to talk about this kind of thing?" ”

The sword warrior frowned: "Can't you just listen to me properly?" I know you've always been stronger, but many times you've acted recklessly without confirming the mandate of the mission, so sooner or later something will happen. When we do things, we always have to have a plan......"

The spear warrior waved his hand again and again and said, "I just can't get used to your grinding and chirping, cautious attitude." What's the use of being so cautious? You've been preparing for it a few times, and this is the third notebook you've written, but what happened? Several times, in the end, you are not in danger yourself, and you still have to rely on me to do you? ”

The sword warrior seemed speechless, after all, these were facts and could not be refuted. After a moment's pause, he shook his head, sighed, and continued, "Because the Granite Fort is in disrepair, there is a possibility that it will become a gathering point for bandits. So, we still have to be careful. ”

The spear warrior couldn't bear it a little longer, pulled out the spear behind him, played a spear flower in the air, and said disdainfully: "What if there are robbers? This is not the first time we have dealt with robbers. According to the old rules, we used night vision potions, sneaked in in the middle of the night, and worked all night. ”

The Sword Warrior felt for his prop pocket, and there was indeed a last bottle of Night Vision Elixir in it. Now that his companion said so, he had nothing to refute, so he could only put away his notes and exhale: "In that case, let's go have lunch, and then go back to the bar to sleep, and then act in the evening." ”

The two warriors had finished their deliberations and were about to leave. Seeing that they didn't mean to come over and ask again, Arrow thought for a while and hurriedly called out to the two of them: "Hey! Wait a minute! I'm not done yet! ”

The two warriors turned around, and Arrow breathed a sigh of relief when he saw them stop, and said with a smile: "I just said that there may be thieves, but there are actually other issues that deserve more attention than thieves. That's the beast. ”

The spear warrior thrust the spear in his hand into the floor: "What about the beasts?" Isn't it the same to kill in? And the beasts are a little easier to deal with than the robbers. ”

Airo shook his head again and again, and turned his gaze to the sword warrior who seemed to be more reliable: "Considering that the Granite Fort is located on a wide plain hillside, surrounded by grasslands and no forests, then I speculate that if there is a beast in it, then this beast must be a creature that likes darkness. Then, no matter how wide the interior of the Granite Fort is, it cannot be wider than the grassland outside. Therefore, the creatures in this must be the kind that prefers narrow places. Judging from the two characteristics of liking darkness and narrowness, it can be deduced that if there are monsters or beasts in it, and there are creatures with strong attack power, they must be extremely good at sneak attacks. So if you want to go at night, you'd better be careful. ”

The Spear Warrior looked impatient, waving his hand in the middle of Arrow's speech, as if he had no patience at all.

After hearing these two words, the sword warrior immediately reached out to reach for the notebook in his pocket, but before he could take out the notes, the spear warrior grabbed him and dragged him outside.

Arrow didn't know if his advice would be taken to heart by the two warriors......

Forget it, anyway, it's just a temporary guild member of his own family, as long as he can make money.

Putting the gold coin away, Arrow looked back at the messed up account book, and the joy he had just raised by making money was immediately washed away.

Alas...... What else can be said? Keep up the work!
